The Tempest

 * Reason:This one was a fun one - heavy damage to the left side, including some sort of mold. Luckily, I was able to fix it all. Mwahaha! Anyway, high-resolution, Shakespeare, major artist - what's not to love?
 * Articles this image appears in:The Tempest
 * Creator:George Romney (painter), B. Smith (engraver), etc.

 * Support although it seems that George Romney created only the painting, not this version. Papa Lima Whiskey  (talk) 12:11, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I've clarified. It's all on the information page, but I summarised a bit much here. Shoemaker&#39;s Holiday (talk) 17:22, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Support Suggest altering the creator line to 'unknown engraver, based on a painting by George Romney'. Either way, fine ev for the article it illustrates.  Maybe you could work on getting an FP for each of Shakespeare's plays?  These are wonderful. :)  Durova Charge! 16:53, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, the engraver is B. Smith, who the Library of Congress thinks may be Benjamin Smith. He's credited in the lower right of the image. See the image information page. As for getting an FP of every Shakespeare work - well, you saw the troubles I found with the Titus Andronicus one =) Think I could get six or seven, at the least, though.

 * Thank you. Wish I still had my old high school copy of Shakespeare.  It had wonderful artwork.  As many as you could do would be great. :)  Durova Charge! 20:59, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Support Excellent quality image of artwork... with prints, even more so than paintings, it is important to be able to see the marks made by the artist. This would also be an excellent illustration for Stipple engraving (which really needs its own article at some point... sigh)  Litho  derm  22:11, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Support: So well restored. And the EV is high—it's Shakespeare, after all!   Mae din \talk 20:16, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
